Ptlltl' FOOTBALL HE Bergen eleven completed about the toughest schedule ever to be played by any Bergen team and did it in grand style by not losing a game. Although tieing four of the seven games the Indians completely outplayed every opponent. The Indians opened their season on September 30, playing the New York Aggies at Hackensack. Open- ing up with a fast attack, Bergen scored early in the second period and it looked as though they would win it by a lopsided score, but the New York eleven proved them- selves quite strong in the second half and came back with a touch- down to tie the score at 6 and 6 which was the final score. On the following Saturday the Indians again played home and met Tren- ton State Teachers at the Riverview Field, Bogota. Trenton didn't prove as strong as was anticipated and the Indians romped all over them, but strangely enough, only ran up a I3 to 0 score. Many times they fumbled the ball within Trenton's ten and five yard line. The whole game was played within the sha- dow of the Trenton goal posts. The Indians traveled to Staten Island the next week to play Wag- ner College. Playing the game with ' ,,. ' ' 4 51 .- f ,. , Y 3. . ..

Charley Coniglio ran seventy- five yards for a touchdown in the last period to put Bergen ahead 20 to I4. With about one and a half minutes to play, Wagner again scored to tie the score but missed the vital point after touchdown after two tries when the Indians were off-side. The game ended at 20 to 20. After two weeks rest, the Green and White traveled to Poultney, Vermont, to meet their strongest opponent of the campaign. The Vermonters proved to be just as strong as was expected. The In- dians showed a stubborn defense as the Green Mountain team I

worked deep into the Green and White's territory but failed to score. The home team tried three field goals but none of them even came close. Bergen tried a forward pass from the Green Mountain fifteen yard line but it was dropped on the goal line. It was the third tie of the season for the Indians as the game ended at U to U. The Indians again got a taste of victory when they played the Panzer College eleven at Hackensack. Bergen easily trounced them by I4 to U. In the game, George Rauch, Bergen's center, intercepted a Panzer fumble and ran 85 yards for a touchdown. It was the longest run of the season made by a Bergen player. The biggest triumph of the year came on the annual homecoming day for the Alumni of Bergen. The Indians played Arnold College on Nov. 18, and liter- ally walked all over them. The Maroon from Connecticut didn't even get one first down as Bergen ran up a total of twenty-one. While running up these first downs, the Indians scored three touchdowns and two extra points for 20 points. Arnold scored its touchdown on an intercpted pass and the game ended with Bergen on top of a 20 to 6 count. Playing a post season charity game, the Indians were matched against the Manhattan Freshmen. The game was played in the pouring rain on Tea- neck I-Iigh School field which was a guagmire of mud. The game ended in a U to U tie. Wallwork, Wolf, Borylo, Campton, Pfeiffer, and Armstrong were outstand- ing throughout the season. Adam Borylo won the most valuable player award, which was donated by the Bergendian and voted on by the student body. The squad: Bill Pfeiffer, Prank Armstrong, Bill Ritchie, Charley Compton, Marvin Wolf, Iohn I-Iansen, Dave Wallwork, Adam Borylo, Dave Gatti, George Rauch, Ignazio Seminara, Ozzie I-Iamilton, Mike Kraykowski, Ernie Querino,
